Multiplicative gain modulation arising from inhibitory synaptic plasticity in the cerebellar nuclei
(2014)
Neurons use the rate of action potentials to encode sensory variables. This makes the output rate as a function of input, also known as input-output (I–O) relationship, a core computational function in neuronal processing. ...
Low velocity heavy mass impact response of single curve composites
(2014-01)
This article presents an extensive experimental investigation of singly curved fibre-reinforced composite structures subjected to low energy heavy mass impact. The objective of the study is to understand the contribution ...
Perceived stress levels among undergraduate pharmacy students in the UK
(2014)
To measure perceived stress levels among the students on a professional pharmacy degree in the UK, and to compare these to US-based students. The Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) was employed to measure stress levels among a ...

Towards Designing Artificial Universes for Artificial Agents under Interaction Closure
(MIT Press, 2014)
We are interested in designing artificial universes for artificial agents. We view artificial agents as networks of highlevel processes on top of of a low-level detailed-description system. We require that the high-level ...
Stratford Revisited
(University of Delaware Press, 2014)
‘Shakespeare and Englishness’ uses Andy Cadiff’s 2008 film A Bunch of Amateurs to extrapolate and assess contemporary meanings of ‘Stratford-upon-Avon’, from prestigious national arts centre to inaccessible rural backwater. ...
An exploration of the development of academic identity in a School of Education
(2014)
This paper explores the complex processes involved in the self-construction of academic identity in a UK School of Education. Building on seminal literature in this field and drawing on the research of four academics, it ...
A review of recent perspectives on biomechanical risk factors associated with anterior cruciate ligament injury
(2014)
There is considerable evidence to support a number of biomechanical risk factors associated with non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. This paper aimed to review these biomechanical risk factors and highlight ...
Don't Believe Everything You Hear : Preserving Relevant Information by Discarding Social Information
(MIT Press, 2014)
Integrating information gained by observing others via Social Bayesian Learning can be beneficial for an agent’s performance, but can also enable population wide information cascades that perpetuate false beliefs through ...
Weighted Marking, Clique Structure and Node- Weighted Centrality to Predict Distribution Centre’s Location in a Supply Chain Management
(2014)
Despite the importance attached to the weights or strengths on the edges of a graph, a graph is only complete if it has both the combinations of nodes and edges. As such, this paper brings to bare the fact that the node-weight ...
